The bill, if approved,
will ban terrorist suspects from international travel as well as
websites that recruit radicals.

Individuals who are suspected of terrorism will be banned from
traveling abroad for up to six months, says the draft bill to be
presented on Wednesday. The passports of the suspects may also be
confiscated for some time or invalidated.

"The objective of this bill is to increase the number of
hurdles to discourage those who want to go and to stop them
[from] actually going," an Interior Ministry source said,
reported French outlets.

Also the law, if approved, says that the airlines will have to
inform the country’s authorities about the alleged radicalized
individuals the moment they make a reservation on the flight. The
airlines will also be banned from taking on board such suspects.

The law will also include measures towards the sites with online
recruitment of people for jihad. French authorities may demand
internet service providers block access to those sites "that
provoke acts of terrorism or praise them," even without a
judge’s approval, says the draft bill. The investigators will be
also allowed to use pseudonyms on the pro-terrorist websites.

"France will not tolerate messages calling for or glorifying
jihad to be shown on its soil with impunity," the draft
document says.

So called ‘lone wolves’ – those with individual
terrorism plans - will also be charged under the new legislation.
The punishment will also be applied to those who are associated
with a group suspected of planning or staging terrorist acts.

Also the authorities may hold and question individuals on
"suspicion of conspiring in relation to terrorism," even
if the evidence against them is insubstantial. This measure aims
to catch potential jihadists or those who may have very slight
connections with the radical groups.

France is concerned about high numbers of people traveling to
Syria and Iraq to fight shoulder to shoulder with Islamic
militants.

"We have a duty to react as almost 800 young people are
involved," Cazeneuve told Le Parisien. He added that among
them are at least 600 country’s citizens who are either are
already in the Middle East or are planning to go, and 100 people
are coming back to France from Syria.

In June, French President Francois Hollande promised to monitor and engage in
“constant battle” with jihadists returning from abroad.
His statement came after the country’s authorities arrested
French national Mehdi Nemmouche, allegedly tied to Syrian
radicals, on suspicion of shooting near the Jewish Museum in
Brussels. The attack left four people dead, including two
Israelis, and one person from France and another from Belgium.

In March 2012, Mohammed Merah, also a country’s citizen, trained
with Al Qaeda fighters in Afghanistan before returning to France
to shoot dead seven people. He was shot dead by police in a
subsequent siege.
